Featuring several interoperable QKD domains, it simulates a real-world secure quantum communication network including an emulated space link. This demonstration will once again show that Europe is on the right path to deploy a quantum-secured communication solution, integrating terrestrial and space-based QKD solutions.

The demonstration showcases multi-technology, multi-vendor and multi-domain interoperability, end-to-end encryption, and European standards compliance in quantum-secure networking, exemplifying Europe’s collaborative drive to safeguard communication networks against quantum-era cyber threats.
